Broad World

Chapter 747: Appeasement

Doris has been pregnant for six months, her belly has already started to swell, and the radiance of motherhood shines on her peaceful face. Ever since she confirmed that she has a small life in her body, she has become very careful in her whole body, especially in terms of diet, everything has to be tested by the confidant maid around her to confirm that there is no problem, otherwise she would rather be hungry than eat anything .

After all, this girl who is not yet seventeen years old has no idea what the future will hold. She doesn't even see Henry a few times. The only things she can accompany her every day are books and the maid brought from the family. Although she has no worries about food and clothing, There is always a lack of a sense of security.

As for Baron Linster, who gave his daughter as a gift, he has now transformed into an important figure in the Baldur's Gate area, controlling the transportation of the Chongsa River, not only allowing the down-and-out family to rise again, but also taking advantage of his position Vigorously develop the river transport, and there will be a large amount of income every month. It is said that there are no less than twenty lovers alone. Maybe they don't even remember that they have a daughter.

For those nobles who took the initiative to join and had no problem with their loyalty, Henry never minded giving them enough rights. In addition, Baron Linster's ability was also very good, so he naturally rose step by step.

Looking at the desolate scene outside the window, Doris sighed softly, closed the book in her hand and asked the maid beside her, "Elena, is there any news outside recently?"

"Of course, Miss." The freckled young maid nodded excitedly. "Didn't you notice that Mrs. Skodi, Master Allen and Miss Liv are all gone? I heard that our Duke is about to hold a coronation ceremony to become His Majesty the King! Do you know what this means? The pain in your stomach A child is a prince! A real prince!"

"Really?!" Doris had a surprised expression on her face, but it was quickly replaced by a touch of sadness. "Forget it, what does this have to do with me, as long as the child can be born without incident, it will be fine. As for the future, let's talk about it later."

She knew very well that it was impossible to participate in such a solemn ceremony in her own capacity, and (lover) lovers and illegitimate children were not protected by noble laws. So the mood instantly became a lot lower.

Elena raised her hands obediently and rubbed her forehead for the hostess, saying: "Miss, you don't need to be so pessimistic. Our His Majesty Henry is not a stingy person, look at the salaries he pays to the servants, and then Looking at Madam Shikodi's attitude towards you, I believe your child will have a bright future."

Doris smiled bitterly: "Maybe he has forgotten me. After a quick meeting, he disappeared for a few months. Do you think this is normal?"

"Aren't the heroes in the bard's stories all busy with dealing with evil? Maybe His Majesty Henry has been fighting against terrible enemies, so it's not surprising that he doesn't have time to see you." The story is taken as an example, which can be seen from those serious eyes. She definitely believed those stories were real.

It has to be said that the cultural level of the common people in Faerun is very low, coupled with the high price of books, as a result, most people get the news from the outside world through hearsay, and then pass it on to each other orally.

As we all know, when a story is passed on ten or ten times, the facts are basically changed beyond recognition. Maybe killing a goblin will turn into killing a dragon. The degree of exaggeration is definitely beyond the limit of your imagination. Exaggeration, only more exaggeration. But most people still believe in it. It will even be passed on to future generations as an experience.

As a noble lady who has read a lot of poetry and books, Doris certainly would not take the maid's words seriously, and shook her head with a faint smile. Turn the pages and prepare to continue reading this book. The only thing she is currently satisfied with is the huge library Henry has built, where there are countless knowledge and history for reading and entertainment, but those books that contain magic are not allowed.

Of course, this is also for safety reasons. After all, magic energy is notoriously unstable, which is really dangerous for a pregnant woman.

Just as the master and servant were about to stay in the study to kill boredom, there was a sudden fluctuation in the air, and a young man with silver hair and silver eyes appeared on the spot out of thin air. It was Henry who was about to be crowned king.

While my wife is busy with the dinner party. He suddenly remembered the little (lover) with a big belly, and hurried over to take a look via ultra-long-distance teleportation.

You must know that the emotions of pregnant women are notoriously unstable, and it can easily affect the fetus. For the sake of safety, if you have time, you should try to accompany and comfort you as much as possible, otherwise accidents will easily occur.

"My gods! Is...is it my eyesight?" Elena covered her mouth with her hand in surprise, her eyes showed horror.

"No, your eyes are very good. I just finished a long trip, and I happened to come over to visit you a few days before the coronation ceremony." Henry winked at the maid, who immediately understood and quickly left the study And shut the door tightly.

Doris' eye circles were slightly red at the moment, as if she had countless grievances. Immediately afterwards, he stood up and hugged Henry fiercely, and began to sob softly.

Henry didn't speak. Just like that, she quietly hugged the girl in her arms, allowing her to vent her emotions. He knew it was better to let it out than to hold it in, especially for pregnant women.

After a few minutes, Doris's excited mood gradually stabilized. She wiped her tears in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Sorry, I seem to have lost my composure."

"It's okay, I know you have always been insecure, so it's not surprising that you are a little worried." Henry said while stroking the girl's lower abdomen, feeling the heartbeat of the fetus inside, and enjoying the plump body due to pregnancy .

With the legendary druid's special sense of life, he can clearly "see" a healthy little guy lying in the womb and thriving. His physical fitness is almost like a calf, even if he is born now No problem. Obviously, this child is born with excellent physique and strength. Although he still doesn't know how his brain develops, he can at least guarantee that he will have no problem becoming a melee professional.

Doris snuggled into Henry's arms like a kitten, closed her eyes and asked softly, "I heard that you plan to let the baby inherit the surname Angomey?"

"That's right, of course the son has to use the same surname as his father, and I will personally train him to be a talent." Henry replied with certainty. He is planning to train his sons to become good helpers for expansion and rule in the future. Just like Telamant Tanshul, the supreme lord of the City of Shadows, he expanded his influence through the power of family affection and blood.

"Aren't you afraid that this will make his ambition grow, and thus he will have the idea of ​​​​taking over the country?" Doris opened her eyes and asked in an unbelievable tone.

As far as she knows, normal nobles treat illegitimate children coldly, neither giving too much care nor being too indifferent, and give them a fairly generous job or a sum of money to fend for themselves after they grow up. Only in this way can they neither have too much ambition nor develop resentment towards the family.

Henry understood what the young mother was thinking. He smiled and shook his head: "No, you still don't understand how vast this world is. My son will definitely set his sights on the endless planes. As for the country on the main plane, it's just their place."

"Are you sure Mrs. Shikodi won't have any opinion on this?" Doris was still a little worried, and asked cautiously.

"I've already talked to her, and there's no problem. After all, Allen is already an official mage, and I will recognize him as the heir at the coronation ceremony, so that nothing will go wrong." Henry explained patiently.

In fact, he was not at all afraid that his children would cause internal strife. After all, reality is not fiction. Almost all famous families in Faerun Continent are very clear that the internal unity of the family is more important than anything else, so it is rare to fight for power and profit. In doing so, you will get nothing but cheap for the enemy.

What's more, Henry himself has an almost infinite lifespan. As long as he is still alive, he will link all his children together through the bond of blood, and wait for decades. Those children probably have their own careers and goals, and they will never be satisfied with being a successor.

Hearing this answer, Doris finally felt relieved, and there was no trace of worry between her brows.

The two stayed together like this for about two hours. It was not until Doris fell asleep peacefully that Henry slowly stood up and covered her with a blanket. Then he opened the door silently and gave orders to the maid waiting outside. Said: "Don't wake her up. Prepare more fish soup and fresh fruit for dinner. If there is nothing, ask the housekeeper to send someone to the Druid Valley to get it. In short, you must ensure adequate nutrition during this time."

"Understood, please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of the young lady and the child in her womb, and there will be absolutely no accidents." Elena swore.

"Well, I have a banquet to attend at Baldur's Gate tonight, so I won't stay here. Here, there is a spell attached to this amulet. Whenever there is a special situation, rub the pendant hard, and I will rush back as soon as possible " Said Henry put a crystal amulet in the hand of the maid, immediately activated the spell, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Elena looked at the amulet in her hand, and then at the ground. Then he covered his mouth and muttered to himself: "My God! Is this the legendary magic?! It's unbelievable that I can cross such a distance in an instant. If only I could become a mage."

After carefully putting the magical amulet on her body, she secretly made up her mind that she must study more with Miss Doris in the future, and maybe she could cast powerful magic herself in a few years.

Perhaps Henry would never have dreamed that an unintentional move would change the fate of an ordinary maid. He is changing the future more and more, affecting the future structure of Faerun Continent. It is estimated that in a few years, the future will become completely different. to the upper hand.

As the famous saying goes, maybe a butterfly flaps its wings once in a while, and two weeks later, somewhere, it will cause a tornado.

As more and more people and things are affected, the flapping wings of Henry, a big butterfly, is no longer just as simple as creating a tornado, but is actually changing the situation in the continent of Faerun, and may affect the entire multiverse in the future .
